Cough Drop Cupcakes

Did some baking with the girls again and they picked out pink icing (of course!!).  I would have thought that cherry chip cupcakes with cherry icing would have been good.  I tried making it with a soda again and the cupcakes were very moist.  The cherry icing was very medicinal like cough medicine.  But the girls liked them because they were pink.  I am amazed how moist the cupcakes are with no oil and just the soda.
