You can make a special shakuhachi-style mouthpiece for this purpose - get a cheap plastic mouthpiece (eg. one that comes with a Buffet or Bundy clarinet) and saw or machine off the beak about 1mm from the base of the window (which will form the blowing edge) and smooth off the end that's been cut to make it comfortable when held against your lower lip.

I'll dig one out and give it a go in a minute.
