It can be a nutritious drink: orange juice provides vitamin C, while wheatgrass and spirulina add a distinctive green flavor. It is not a “detox” drink, though, and should not replace a varied diet or a balanced meal.
Blend wheatgrass, spirulina and orange juice until smooth. Add ice for a colder drink, and taste it before adding anything sweet. Freshly squeezed juice gives it a bright flavor; bottled juice also works.
It tastes citrusy and sweet-tart from the orange juice, with an earthy, grassy note from the wheatgrass and spirulina. Serving it cold can make the strong green flavor less noticeable.
There is no proven best time; you can have a wheatgrass spirulina orange juice smoothie with breakfast or as a snack. If you want it to keep you fuller, pair it with a protein-rich food rather than drinking it alone.
Most adults can include it regularly, but there is no need to drink it daily. Choose spirulina from a reputable source, and vary your fruit and vegetables instead of relying on this one smoothie.
No, it does not cause weight loss on its own. It may work as a drink alongside a meal, but replacing meals with it can leave you short of filling protein and other nutrients.
They may be able to, but the orange juice contains natural sugars and has less fiber than whole oranges. If you have diabetes, account for the juice in your meal plan and monitor your own response.
It is best freshly made. If you have leftovers, store them in a sealed container in the refrigerator and drink them the same day; the color and flavor can change as the mixture sits.
Yes, but freezing and thawing can make the texture separate and less fresh-tasting. Freeze it in small portions, thaw it in the refrigerator, then blend it again before drinking.
Ask your healthcare professional before using spirulina or wheatgrass products during pregnancy, since product quality and ingredients can vary. Choose pasteurized orange juice to reduce food-safety risks.

A wheatgrass spirulina orange juice smoothie blends wheatgrass—the young shoots of the wheat plant—with spirulina, a blue-green algae, and orange juice. It is a modern green smoothie rather than a traditional dish, found in juice bars and home kitchens in many places. The orange brings a bright, fruity tang that balances the grassy, slightly earthy notes of the greens. Its texture can range from light and juice-like to thicker, depending on how it is blended.
People often have it with breakfast or as a refreshing snack, served chilled and freshly made. Orange juice makes it a source of vitamin C, while the greens give it its distinctive colour and flavour. If the taste is too intense, dilute it with water or pair it with a simple breakfast; adding more juice will make it sweeter.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
