S/O food in the night

I've gotten in a habit of giving DS (16 months) milk when he wakes up at night and I know it's a bad habit. He went from a night wake up just once every few weeks to a wake up a few times a week.

DH and I are going away for a few nights next week and when I come back I plan to stop giving him milk at night. Does anyone put a sippy cup with water in the crib? Can you recommend a good one that doesn't leak? All of ours seem to leak if not upright.

Also - any other suggestions?

    I don't put sippy in the crib with DD only because I know she will drink the entire thing at once. I keep it on her table and if she wakes up I will go in and give it to her.

    We use playtex sippy cups or munchkin ones- no leaking

    Over the summer Reese has been in a panic at bedtime--she wants "ice cold water" in her crib. God forbid if it isn't "Ice cold water" She usually drinks some of it before she falls asleep--and then she puts it on top of the crib rail when she is done. Which freaks me out, because I always think they she will roll around in the crib and bump into it and the cup falling on her head. 

    She loves her cold water though.

    We have been giving DS a sippy cup of water for as long as I can remember.  Sometimes he drinks the entire thing before falling asleep, sometimes it is basically full when he wakes up, but her refuses to go upstairs to bed/nap without filling a glass up.  We generally use Tommee Tippee cups, but also sometimes just use a repurposed Tummy Tickler bottles if we have some lying around - which we normally do.  The Tummy Tickler bottles leak a bit, but since it is water, we don't really care (he sleeps in a queen sized bed, so I know, even if he spilled an entire sippy cup, he could find a dry place to sleep).
