Using color coding in a drop down menu.

Ok, So I figured out how to create a drop down menu in excel. I would like to color code the menu options. Here is my menu list: Green, Red, Yellow, Blue. I have them in the drop down menu and I would like to put their associated name with the appropriate color background rather than just use white cell with black letters. Green would have a green cell color, Red would have a red cell color, and so on and so forth. Any suggestions?


Ok when you choose blue from the list then it would show the word BLUE and it's color. Is that possible?
