How to select an option from a drop down menu?

Question

Java

I need to click on the "Paste Expiration" drop down menu on pastebin.com and select "10 Minutes".

I created

@FindBy(id = "select2-postform-expiration-container")
private WebElement optionPasteExpiration;

Clicking on this element works, a list of options appears. How to choose the right one among them?
