    Hi Hector,

    Im assuming you mean the background-color
    Write the below css in your child theme style.css

    select {
    background-color: green;
    }

    Hiii Hector,here is what you need to change in your style.css

    Search the following codes

    #1 This code will change your sub-menu background color

    .genesis-nav-menu .sub-menu {
    background-color: #e8e6e2 (you have to change this hex # to any color code you like)

    #2 This code will change your sub-menu hover colofr

    .genesis-nav-menu .sub-menu a:hover {
    background-color: #f5f5f5; (you have to change this hex # to any color code you like)
    }

    I forgot to add if you want to change the color of the menu when you click on it

    search for the following code in the style.css

    .genesis-nav-menu .sub-menu .current-menu-item > a:hover {
    background-color: #fff; (change this color hex # to any color you like)
    color: #1a212b; (this is the font color,you can change this too)
    }
