First, fruits don't "produce" electricity, but they create acids. These acids, in combination with metals in the fruit circuit are the reason electricity is produced.

Electrolytes are salts like magnesium, sodium, potassium, etc that are a result of one of these acids dissolving into a solution, leaving them as ions. These ions carry charges and this is what allows the electricity to flow.

Citrus fruits usually contain more electrolytes than others and because of their higher concentration of ions, more electricity flows through.

It's not so much the acid in the fruit as the pure metals. The fruit juice acts as an electrolyte and the metals are changed chemically.

Batteries use acids. And those have acids. Certain types of acids react with metals to produce positive and negative electrical charges.
