Last time I bought any, the denaturant was
methanol.

That actually might work, since the tincture of essential oils is only
used by the drop. OTOH, you don't know what the denaturant is; it could
be Bitrex® and even a trace of it would ruin the soda. 91% isopropyl is
another possibility, but I don't recommend it.

I would just use 151 proof rum. I know that's food-grade.
