You can color custom icons as

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);

    for(int i = 0; i < menu.size(); i++){
        Drawable drawable = menu.getItem(i).getIcon();
        if(drawable != null) {
            drawable.mutate();
            drawable.setColorFilter(Color.parseColor("#FF408100"), PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_ATOP);
        }
    }

    return true;

}
