Default How to tell which joint a leak is coming from?

The nest of plastic piping under our kitchen sink has developed an as
yet small leak. It's a combination of the main sink drain, half sink
drain and dishwasher drain.

What's the best way I can tell which of the many joints is leaking?
There's only dampness around the fittings at the moment so I can't
actually see anything dripping from anywhere.


Colour the water with a food dye


Now that idea I like. Might make the subsequent fixing a bit messy
though unless it's all flushed through!
