Treehouse is telling me this is wrong, that the price doesn't match the original listing. I'm stuck and not sure.

It says the price doesn't match the original listing?

app.js 
const flavor = "Blueberry";
const type = "Smoothie";
const price = 4.99;
const drink = `${flavor} ' ' ${type}: $${price}`;

const flavor = "Blueberry";
const type = "Smoothie";
const price = 4.99;
// You only need to take out the single quotes between flavor and type
// If you take out the second dollar sign it will not have it on the price
// I ran it through the challenge to ensure it worked
const drink = `${flavor} ${type}: $${price}`;

Try take out the two single quotes and a space between ${flavor} and ${type}.
