You can carry on 2 bottles of wine per cabin. I've not had my bottles of wine inspected, so perhaps a cordial bottle might pass inspection. If you have it in your checked bag it will get flagged and you'll have to explain it.. cordial is not wine so it likely will be confiscated.

Here is what is allowed.

"Small quantities of water, dietary supplement drinks, non-alcoholic beer, or soft drinks in boxes and cans are permitted in hand luggage only. Drinks in bottles (glass or plastic) are not permitted. A small quantity is considered a maximum of twelve (12) sealed, unopened cans/cartons of twelve 12 ounces each or less per person." source: https://www.virginvoyages.com/safety-security/prohibited-items

A bottle of Belvoir will look like a bottle of wine (albeit skinny) -- bring it in your carry-on. Technically, it would not be permissible as it is not a can / carton, although I can't see that being too readily enforced.      Scott.

Cordial would be considered liquor. Not permitted on the ship. You are supposed carry wine with you onboard. If you put it into your luggage, you will be asked to visit Security to examine your luggage.

might be some language mix up here, cordial in the UK is "squash" fruit based concentrate that is alcohol free, we usually dilute it with water or lemonade 

google "Ribena" and you will get the idea 

 

my title should have said Fruit Cordial to avoid the confusion, sorry about that

 

i do know that it's definitely not alcoholic, we give it to our toddlers/ kiddies 🤭

Non-alcoholic stuff you can bring as much as you want, but it can't be in a single-use plastic. So, just make sure you use a glass bottle for this and you should be fine.
