This is an old recipe that comes from a request in the local paper for
"Classic Recipes". They called the 7-Up bottling company and they did not
even know about it. Someone developed this on their own and never let the
company know about it. BTW 7-Up comes from the popular card game in the
1930's.
Cream the margarine, shortening and sugar together beating until light and
fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, blending well after each addition.
Beat in the flour, then beat in the extract and 7-Up. Blend well. Pour the
batter into a well-greased and floured tube pan and bake at 325 degrees F
for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
