 >  Don't mean to rain on anyone's parade, but wonder how using diluted 
blueberry pancake syrup would work to condition bees to the blueberry 
blossom.

I wouldn't expect the artificial blueberry pancake syrup to resemble 
nectar from the blueberry at all.  Even blueberry juice isn't likely to 
resemble blueberry nectar.
Spiking the feed with blueberry pollen would have an actual component 
from the flower/nectar.
