How to change background color option menu

Have you controlled the context you passed to the constructor? When you create a PopupMenu class, please use the Activity context like this :

PopupMenu popup = new PopupMenu(this, anchorView);//Not BaseContext

Whether you use android.widget.PopupMenu or android.support.v7.widget.PopupMenu? They governed by different theme attributes :

 <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
     <!-- if using android.widget.PopupMenu -->
     <item name="android:popupMenuStyle">@style/PopupMenu</item>
     <!-- if using android.support.v7.widget.PopupMenu -->
     <item name="popupMenuStyle">@style/PopupMenu</item>
 </style/>

 <style name="PopupMenu" parent="Widget.AppCompat.PopupMenu">
     <item name="android:popupBackground">@android:color/white</item>
 </style>

Effect like this.
