well when i try stuff that needs timing like this i use the spray-n-pray philosophy of photography and set my cam on the setting where it takes like 3 shots a second, and then in a case like this i would drip-drip-drip into the cup (or whatever is depicted here, looks like toilet water TBH, not to belittle OP's pic which is nice) and take the best ofthe shots later.

What I did was set up a small pasta bowl over my sink. The faucet on the sink rotates, so I rotated it backwards over the counter and put the bowl under it. I filled the bowl with a little water and dyed it blue with food coloring. This makes the drops more visible against the white bowl. Then you turn on the faucet just enough so that it drops one at a time. Once you get the rhythm of the dropping its easy to hit it relatively close to when it should hit.

Good luck and make sure you are using flash at a very fast shutter speed. Don't forget to focus on where the drop will be. The first half of this set was out of focus. =\
