使用actionbarcompat样式化弹出菜单

Question

I've PopUpMenu with support library v7 in my application which works as expected. But styling PopUpMenu is not working with styles of actionbarcompat .

styles.xml in values as follows :

<style name="Theme.Tellus" parent="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light">
    <item name="popupMenuStyle">@style/PopupMenu.Tellus</item>
    <item name="dropDownListViewStyle">@style/DropDownListView.Tellus</item>
</style>


<style name="PopupMenu.Tellus" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Light.PopupMenu">
    <item name="android:listSelector">@drawable/selectable_background_tellus</item>
    <item name="android:popupBackground">@drawable/menu_dropdown_panel_tellus</item>
    <item name="android:textSize">16sp</item>
    <item name="android:textColor">@android:color/white</item>
</style>

<style name="DropDownListView.Tellus" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Light.ListView.DropDown">
    <item name="android:listSelector">@drawable/selectable_background_tellus</item>
    <item name="android:background">@color/background_actionbar</item>
    <item name="android:textColor">#FFFFFF</item>
    <item name="android:divider">@android:color/white</item>
    <item name="android:dividerHeight">1dp</item>
</style>

Here is output what I'm getting after applying theme.

It does display background of PopUpMenu in blue color which is applied from dropDownListViewStyle . How come PopUpMenu using dropDownListViewStyle ? If it's using then it should use all attributes of dropDownListViewStyle

I want to change MenuItem textColor to white which fits to my theme. How can one apply style to MenuItem textColor?

Any enlightenment will be welcomes
