Ingredients

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 (16oz) bag coleslaw mix

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sugar, lemon juice, and apple cider vinegar. Mix well until the sugar is completely dissolved and the dressing is smooth.
Add a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper to the dressing. Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning as needed. You can add more sugar if you like it sweeter, more vinegar for tanginess, or more salt and pepper to enhance the flavor.
Open the bag of coleslaw mix and pour it into the bowl with the dressing. Using a large spoon or spatula, toss the coleslaw mix with the dressing until all the cabbage and carrots are evenly coated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the coleslaw to an airtight container. Place it in the refrigerator for at least one hour before serving. This chilling time allows the flavors to meld together and the cabbage to soften slightly.
Before serving, give the coleslaw a final toss to ensure the dressing is well-distributed. Taste once more and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Serve your coleslaw as a side dish with your favorite BBQ, burgers, or sandwiches. Enjoy!
