What I did was I added the class of dropdown to the li that contains the dropdown. Then, I set position: relative; on .dropdown. Then on the dropdown box, I set its position to absolute and top 100%:

li.dropdown {
    position: relative;
}

li.dropdown .dropdown-container {
    display: none;
}

li.dropdown:hover .dropdown-container {
    display: block;
    position: absolute;
    top: 100%;
}
