You can detect salt in water without tasting by measuring the density of the water. Place a glass of spring water and a glass of the suspected salt water on a balance scale and the heavier one contains salt. Other ways to test for salt in water is to put a drop of water on the end of a nail and place in a gas flame. If the water contains salt, the flame will turn a yellow/orange color.

But since sugar can do the same thing, you would need to determine the solubility of the unknown substance and see how much of it will dissolve in a certain amount of water.
