Color citations

[physci]

Is it possible to color citations?

I'm using Mellel and Bookends.
I've gone through the guide where one can custom italicize or bold the citations. But how would one add color to it? I tried to click on styles -> blue, and while the format manager shows a, d, after scanning in Mellel, it comes up without the color.

As an example, this is what I'm trying to achieve:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit (Noran et al., 2008). Maecenas interdum nulla (John et al., 2001). Etiam volutpat neque non erat.

Bibliography:
Noren F, Ssdsed J, Gaudry A, Mike G, Asered B. Praesent hendrerit aenean scelerisque elit non sapien. Science. 2008; 101: 269-314.
John D, Klopas J, Flored S et al. Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et ac turpis egestas. Nature 2001;312:1041-1046.

Bookends will output color if the text is actually colored in the reference, but won't do it for a whole citation.
