React Bootstrap Typeahead children onclick

I have been using a Premade React-Bootstrap Typeahead search-bar found here

I am having trouble accessing the child elements from the dropdown. I want to be able to have an Onclick function for the dropdown items, but it doesn't seem like I have access to the children.

Below is the code I have currently, where I use typeahead

<div className="search-bar">
  <Typeahead
    id="sample"
    options= {cities.map((city) => (city))}
    labelKey="name"
    placeholder="Enter a city"
  />
</div>

How do I get an onclick for these element cities listed?

You can customize menu rendering and behavior by using the renderMenu prop:

<Typeahead
  options={options}
  renderMenu={(results, menuProps) => (
    <Menu {...menuProps}>
      {results.map((result, index) => (
        <MenuItem
          onClick={() => console.log('click!')}
          option={result}
          position={index}>
          {result.label}
        </MenuItem>
      ))}
    </Menu>
  )}
/>

With the menu items exposed, you're free to add your own onClick handler to each item. Here's a working example.
