Go easy on any added sugar- even small amounts add up over time. Fruit juice is a concentrated way to get your fruit for the day. When you squeeze 1 orange it makes about ml of juice, less than half a cup. It is easy to drink a large amount of juice, but much harder to eat the same amount of fruit. Fruit juice does provide all of the vitamins and minerals and antioxidants found in the whole fruit but very little of the fibre.
Most people should only have 1 small glass of juice each day if they are trying to control weight. You might enjoy a smoothie- where the fruit is blended with yoghurt, milk or other ingredients. This means that you are eating the whole fruit with all of the fibre- a much better option. Although they may contain many vitamins and minerals they can be very high in calories or kilojoules and potentially can lead to weight gain. It is important to include milk in your diet, but not in large amounts if you are trying to control your weight.
Remember that other milk products such as cheese and yoghurt belong to the same food group, so enjoying these foods regularly means you do not need to drink large amounts of milk. Low fat milks are the best choice. Fruit juices have enough fruit in them to count as a full serving of fruit for your diet. A good serving size is one glass — ml — per day. This will count as a serving of fruit but keeps you from having too much sugar from taking in more than you need.
For the rest of the day, you will want to eat whole fruits and vegetables to get the remainder of the servings and to stay healthy with all-natural sugars that digest at a slower rate.

So, should you replace water with cordial on some occasions? Your body needs lots of water and you want it to have what it needs to stay as healthy as possible. Drinking the proper amount of water per day will allow your body to look and feel its best.
Replacing water with cordial will not do that. But, if you want to drink some every once and a while to add some flavor to your day, then this will not be an issue.
