Hi Blessing, nested lists in html are actually quite simple, you simply need to place another set of <ul> tags inside of a <li> in order to make a nested list. Take a look at the example below and apply it to the code you need to write:

<ul>
  <li>Coffee</li>
  <li>Tea
    <ul>
      <li>Black tea</li>
      <li>Green tea</li>
    </ul>
  </li>
  <li>Milk</li>
</ul>

Hope this helps.
