const drink=`${flavor} ${type} ${"$" ${price}}`; Thanks for any help.

I would like to get any assistance about this. I am stuck on this coding challenge.

app.js 
const flavor = "Blueberry";
const type = "Smoothie";
const price = 4.99;

const drink =`${flavor} ${type} ${"$"}  ${price}`;
console.log(drink)

You should be able to write your '$' denoting a dollar amount directly into the template literal without curly braces and a $, this is because it is only part of the string and not a variable holding any value:

ex: ${flavor} ${type} $${price};
