Beaker.....nothing happening

I've been trying to get DS (7mths) to take a beaker instead of a bottle by putting some water or milk in it and giving it to him. I even drink from it in front of him and do the old 'mmm, yum yum' but no joy. He licks the wrong end of it then rolls it round for a bit. At the same time, he wants to hold his bottle himself but can't (just sucks air)

Any tips? Shall i just keep trying this way?

Hi, my ds wouldn't take water from anything until a couple of weeks ago, he's 8 months now. I have a cupboard full of every type of beaker I reckon, but find that that the Tommy Tippee one the best, without any fancy spouts.......keep it simple I say!
