1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Preparation

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Spray 12 cup bundt pan with nonstick spray.

Using an electric mixer ( I use my kitchen aid large bowl mixer) beat butter in large bowl until fluffy.
Gradually beat in sugar until fluffy.
Add eggs 1 at a time until until combined.
Add in 1 teaspoon each of lemon and lime peels.
Beat in flour mixture in 4 additions alternating with 3/4 cup of the lemon lime soda in 3 additions.
When all combined transfer batter to prepared bundt pan.
Bake cake until golden on top and tester comes out clean (about 1 hour 15 minutes).
Cool cake in pan for 5 minutes.
Turn cake out onto cake rack and cool completely.
Combine powdered sugar and reserved 1/2 teaspoon each of the lemon and lime peels in a bowl.
Whisk in enough of the remaining 2 tablespoons of soda to form a thick enough frosting to drizzle over the cake.
