Ok what am I doing wrong?

I honestly thought it was a cordial drink (like raro or refresh... if you have those half a world from here)

Raro or Refresh? Nope, never heard of them here on the other side of the pond. To me, a "cordial" is a liquer (not sure how to spell that!) like Amaretto or B&B (i.e., very high-sugar alcoholic beverage). Definitely not something to drink from one's water bottle on a ride!
