Convert the set of concatenated strings assigned to the drink variable to a template literal. The final string should be

app.js 
const flavor = "Blueberry";
const type = "Smoothie";
const price = 4.99;

const drink = `"${flavor} ${type}:$ ${price}"`;

They really should have worded this task better because it can easily be confusing..

the colon : should come immediately after ${type} and there should be no space between the dollar $ and ${price}

As follows..

const drink = `"${flavor} ${type}: $${price}"`;

Hope this helps!
