How do I remove items listed in a pivot table drop down list box

I'm working with a pivot table in Excel. The occurences of a specific value
in my source data for a pivot table have all been removed from the source /
raw data but the drop down list box for that field still shows that value as
an option to display. How can I get rid of this?

There are instructions here for clearing old items from a PivotTable
dropdown list:
