Not exactly sure where I went wrong here either ? Thought I did it correctly...

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

const drink = ${flavor} + "Blueberry"  + ${type} + "Smoothie" + ${price} + "$";
console.log = prompt("Blueberry Smoothie: $4.99");

const sentence = `Blueberry Smoothie: $4.99`;

Hey Kamran Hussain,

You don't need to create a new variable for this challenge. You simply need to modify concatenated strings assigned to drink variable into template literals.

Here's the final version:

const flavor = "Blueberry";
const type = "Smoothie";
const price = 4.99;

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

Hope this helps!
