Plastic cup (6)

I believe the answer is:

beaker

(Other definitions for beaker that I've seen before include "Plastic drinking vessel" , "Plastic mug" , "Wide-mouthed cup" , "Open glass, straight with lip, used in laboratory" , "Drink container" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Telegraph.
