I found the recipe on a blog called Nothing But Country, and I've made a few additions to suit my needs.

Ingredients:

1 (18 ounce) box lemon cake mix

1 (3 1/2 ounce) box lemon pudding mix

4 eggs

1 1/4 cups mountain dew soda

1/2 cup vegetable oil

3 -5 drops yellow food coloring

4 cups confectioners' sugar

1 cup salted butter (room temp)

1/8 cup mountain dew soda

1/2 tablespoon lemon juice

1/2 tablespoon lime juice

3 -5 drops neon green food coloring

Directions:

1. Mix cake mix, pudding and eggs well.
2. Add in your oil to the batter and mix for 2 minutes.
3. Slowly pour in your mountain dew soda and mix for another minute.
4. Add to cupcake liners and bake at 350 degrees F for 13-17 minutes (or until toothpick inserted comes out clean).
5. Allow time to cool before frosting.
6. To make frosting, beat your butter well till smooth, slowly add in 1 cup at a time of confectioners sugar and your lemon juice & mountain dew.
7. Add all of your sugar and check for thickness of the frosting. If it is too thick add a teaspoon at a time of mountain dew till you reach the correct consistency to pipe or frost your cupcakes.
