HEYTEA Green Grape Boom
The other grape drink, and the one people order by mistake. Lighter and sharper than Crisp Grape, and it costs you more.

About the Green Grape Boom
Green Grape Boom sells for $9.99 at 200 calories. Green grape pulp goes into a jasmine green tea base, the same construction as Crisp Grape Boom, which is why these two get confused at the counter constantly. The differences are real but small, and the price gap runs the opposite way to what most people expect.
This is the lighter of the two. Fewer calories, a sharper finish, and less of the thick pulp weight the Crisp build carries through to your last few sips. Where Crisp Grape tastes like crushed fruit, this reads more like a grape tea. Which one you prefer comes down to how much you want the fruit to dominate, and there is no wrong answer.
On price it is the more expensive of the pair at $9.99 against $9.49, and it carries fewer calories at 200 against 210. It also has no large cup option while Crisp Grape does. Buy on value alone and you take the Crisp build. Buy on how the drink actually tastes and you should try both once, then stop worrying about it.
The jasmine underneath is more audible here than in most of the fruit range, and to me that is the strongest argument for this cup. With less pulp competing, the floral note comes through cleanly, particularly at reduced sugar. At full sugar that advantage disappears entirely and the two grape drinks become almost impossible to tell apart, so know that before you pay the extra.
Order this if you find the Crisp build slightly heavy, or if the tea itself is the part you care about. Skip it if you want the maximum amount of fruit for your money, since the Crisp version gives you more of that for less. Neither drink contains dairy, so both work if you are avoiding milk.
For the creamy version of this exact drink, Cloud Green Grape adds a salted cheese cap and costs $9.49, which is actually less than this cup. That pricing is unusual and it makes the Cloud version the obvious pick if dairy is not a problem for you.
Green Grape Boom sizes and prices
The Green Grape Boom comes in one cup size only, at $9.99 for 200 calories, so there is no upgrade to weigh up. That price makes it the 2nd dearest of the 13 drinks in the Fruit Tea Series section.

Best toppings for the Green Grape Boom
The Green Grape Boom starts at $9.99 and every topping is charged on top of that. Matcha Jelly is the cheapest of the three at $0.98, and all three together would take the Green Grape Boom to $14.13 and 370 calories.
| Topping | Add on | Cal | Cup total | Why it works here |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coconut Milk Jelly | +$1.58 | +70 | $11.57 270 cal | Soft cubes that add body to a drink deliberately built light, without pushing it toward the heavier Crisp profile. |
| Matcha Jelly | +$0.98 | +60 | $10.97 260 cal | The cheapest chew at {PRICE:matcha-jelly}, and green tea jelly sits naturally with a jasmine base. |
| Grapefruit Pulp | +$1.58 | +40 | $11.57 240 cal | Sharpens an already sharp drink. The right call if the grape reads too sweet for you at standard sugar. |
These three suit the Green Grape Boom in particular, and the remaining 4 options sit in the full toppings table with what each one does to a mid board cup.
How to make a Green Grape Boom at home
Your home version of this and the Crisp build differ only in how hard you crush the fruit and how much goes in, so learning one gives you both. Here the grapes take a lighter press and the tea ratio runs higher. In store it is $9.99.

Tips that actually change the result
- Use fewer grapes than feels right. The restraint is the point of this version.
- Taste the tea before building. With less fruit in the cup, a weak or bitter base has nowhere to hide.
- Chill the glasses if you have room. A cold glass keeps the drink sharp for longer.
Ways to change it
- Double the grapes and crush them harder for the Crisp Grape Boom profile.
- Loosen 60g cream cheese with 40ml cream, salt it lightly, and pour it over for the Cloud Green Grape build.
- Add a few thin cucumber ribbons to the glass for a lighter, more savoury finish.
How the Green Grape Boom compares
Four grape builds on one tea base. Price does not track calories in this group, and I find the Cloud version undercutting the plain one genuinely surprising.
