Default How to get a drop down menu to return another value

I have a list of items on Sheet2 which reads
Bananas A
Apples F
Peaches R
Kumquats Y

On Sheet1, I have a drop-down menu in cell A5 which I have set to show the
choices Bananas, Apples, Peaches, Kumquats.

However I need the VALUE of cell A5 to be the letter shown in the list on
Sheet2.

I remember there is a way to do this but I can't seem to find it.. thank you!
