For example:

html

<body>
 <div id="menubox">
  <ul id="menu">
   <li>menu item 1</li>
   <li>menu item 2</li>
   <li>menu item 3</li>
  </ul>
 </div>
</body>

css

#menubox {
 position:absolute;
 display:flex;
 flex-direction: column;
 width:15rem;
 height:100%;
}
#menu {
 list-style:none;
 margin: auto 0;
}
