Chris has hit on a VERY good idea. I feel that dying sugar water with green
dye would be the best way to keep sugar water out of honey without any
question.
It's not my idea. It's been done before. When sugar was rationed after the
War (WWII) beekeepers were given an extra ration which was dyed green to
prevent misappropriation. The following year there was a lot of green honey about!
