An apparatus is configured to detect a beverage that is contaminated with a substance. The apparatus may include a testing material, wherein the testing material may comprise a cavity having a complementary shape to a molecule associated with the substance. The apparatus may include a taste substance filling the cavity, wherein the taste substance filling the cavity may bleed out into the beverage when the molecule associated with the substance in the beverage replaces the taste substance filling the cavity, wherein a taste of the beverage may change when the taste substance bleeds out into the beverage as an indicator that the substance is present in the beverage.
