Ideally, infants do drink water. Stop giving any flavoured water as the baby will then reject plain water ,as it would be tasteless for them. Keep offering him water frequently in addition to your breastfeeding. He will definitely start accepting it, once he is thirsty and he doesn't get any backup options.
