7-UP POUND CAKE

Lemon Pound cake with fresh berries

3 sticks of butter (margarine will not do)
3 cups sugar
5 eggs
3 cups flour
2 teaspoons lemon extract
3/4 cup 7-Up

Cream butter and sugar for 20 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time. Gradually add the flour and beat well, then add lemon extract and 7-Up. Bake 1 1/4 hours at 325 degrees in a well oiled Bundt pan. Cool 8 to 10 minutes then invert onto a plate and let cool for an hour. Top with fresh berries, I did strawberries and raspberries but have had it with fresh peaches, strawberries and raspberries also and it was YUMMY!!!
