Hi. Thank you. Would you say the following refers to the flavor or the fruit? Do you have any apple/any grape? I think my question gets not so easy to answer. Any way, any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Easy to answer.
A native speaker would definitely understand this to refer to the flavour, eg in a context dealing with fruit juice.
