By default the icon will inherit the current font color of the container it is placed within. You can easily provide a specific color using an inline style on the element (style="color: red") or can target the tag as normal with CSS rules.
You should make use of aria attributes to improve accessibility for users that use screen reading technology. You can use aria-labelledby to create a link between an icon and its label. A descriptive aria-label can be used to allow screen readers to announce an icon if there is no visual label to accompany it.
