Do I need to take creatine with grape/apple juice, or would it be fine to take with water?

is fine to take it with water but to get the full advantage of the creatine it will help to take it with 100% grape juce. NO ADDED SUGER. this will raise you glucose level.
but yes drink a little over a gallon a day when on the on cycle of creatine

dont take it with water take it with 100% juice IF you are taking a pure form of creatine ie monohydrat, ethyl ester, etc... now if you are taking something like cell mass it already has glucose in it and will cause the insulin spike, think of it this way would you rather watch an action movie on a portable dvd player or the movie theaters either way you still watch the movie but you dont get the full effect watching it on the portable dvd player. If you want to get the full effect of creatine you MUST spike your insulin levels.
