Here is an example scene that shows how to set up the nodes for colored smoke:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=737#p7657

also this might help, although it's a bit older: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=9&p=2918&hilit=smoke+color#p2918

In cycles you just click to the absorption color (in color picker) and that all.
But in this setup we pluged other node to the absorption color (so we have not color picker).
Sory, if my english no perfect)

Ah, sorry, in this setup the color comes from the smoke simulation (in the emitter settings) and is baked into the smoke.

This one should work for you:
The absorption depth controls how strong/saturated the color is (lower depth = more saturation).
