You rewrite the "background-color: #e2e2e2;" to "background-color: blue;"? But "background-colour" not equal to "background-color". Hope this help.

yup I already did that and refreshed the preview, but it stays grey

.tag { background-color: blue; color: black; padding: 10px; border-radius: 5px; display: table; margin: 10px auto; }

Ok, after when you rewrite the code, save the code and after refresh the page.
