Ingredients
Instructions
- Pour orange juice and grape juice into a tall glass.
- Add sugar and dash of salt to the beaten egg white and mix well.
- Add the egg white mixture to the fruit juices and stir just enough to combine.
Tips & Substitutions
For a smoother texture, ensure the egg white is beaten to stiff peaks before adding to the juice mixture. If you're looking for a sweeter drink, consider using a flavored grape juice or adding more sugar. Freshly squeezed orange juice enhances the flavor significantly. If you're concerned about raw egg, pasteurized egg whites are a safe substitute. This refreshing drink pairs beautifully with Zucchini Pie(One 9-Inch).
Serving Suggestions
Serve this drink in tall glasses over ice for a refreshing treat. It makes a fantastic brunch beverage, especially paired with light dishes like salads or pastries. For a festive touch, garnish with a slice of orange or a few fresh grapes. It also pairs well with American recipes for a well-rounded meal.
Storage & Reheating
This grape juice with egg is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, store any remaining mixture in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Stir well before serving again, as the egg white can separate. Avoid freezing, as the texture will change significantly upon thawing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use whole eggs instead of just egg whites?
Using whole eggs will alter the texture and flavor of the drink, making it richer and creamier. However, it's important to note that raw eggs carry a risk of salmonella. If you choose to use whole eggs, consider using pasteurized eggs for safety.
What can I use instead of grape juice?
You can substitute grape juice with other fruit juices like apple or cranberry for a different flavor profile. Just keep in mind that the taste will change, and you may need to adjust the sweetness accordingly.
Is this drink suitable for kids?
While this drink can be enjoyed by kids, you should avoid using raw egg whites due to potential health risks. Instead, consider using egg white substitutes that are safe for children, or simply omit the egg white for a delicious juice blend.
