My children were introduced to sippy cups before they even turned a year.  I put formula in them.  I was surprised by how easy the transition was.  The sippy cups that are available now are great.  There are many different style.  One with handles and ones without.  There are so many fun designs and colors for the kids.  You may find that your child really wants a sippy cup once he tries it out for the first time.  They do actually have to suck in them if the valve is inserted to get the liquid out.

At 16 months your little one really does not need a bottle.

I think they are about $12 but I think its great and a 16 month old would do fine with out, and you could ween your child off in a matter of maybe 2 months onto sippy cups and from there maybe a few months and then try moving onto regular cups
