Morphology

grape + juice

The meaning 'juice made from grapes' is directly and compositionally derived from 'grape' (the fruit) + 'juice' (liquid extracted from a plant), so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand it. This noun–noun compound follows a common, cross-linguistic pattern for naming fruit-derived drinks and contains no idiomatic or metaphorical shift.

Etymology

The noun grape juice comes from the simple image of squeezing grape to make juice. So, it means the sweet, non-alcoholic 'drink' made from grapes.
