You need styles for android:actionMenuTextColor
to change the "options" text color and android:textAppearanceLargePopupMenu
to change the PopupMenu
text color.
<style name="Your.Theme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light">
<item name="android:actionMenuTextColor">@android:color/holo_red_dark</item>
<item name="android:textAppearanceLargePopupMenu">@style/TextAppearance.Red.PopupMenu.Large</item>
<item name="android:popupMenuStyle">@style/PopupMenu.Example</item>
</style>
<style name="TextAppearance.Red.PopupMenu.Large" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.DeviceDefault.Widget.PopupMenu.Large">
<item name="android:textColor">@android:color/holo_red_dark</item>
</style>
<style name="PopupMenu.Example" parent="@android:style/Widget.ListPopupWindow">
<item name="android:popupBackground">@drawable/your_background</item>
<!-- Or use -->
<item name="android:popupBackground">@android:color/white</item>
