Hey there!

We're setting the titles for the tabs here:

@Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
    switch (position) {
        case 0:
            return "Coffee";
        case 1:
            return "Rooibos";
        case 2:
            return "Green";
        case 3:
            return "Herbal";
    }
    return null;
}

So, you should be able to work out where the 2nd tab is (Hint! The first tab is at the 0th position!) and change its return statement to whatever the title of the tab should be. Right now, the titles for the tabs are Coffee, Rooibos,, Green and Herbal.

Hope it helps and if you have any more questions/problems, give me a shout :)
