Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together the mayo, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, salt and pepper.

Add in the coleslaw mix and stir until everything is coated in the coleslaw dressing.

Serve right away and store leftovers in the fridge. This doesn’t keep for long and if you’re planning to make it for a party, I suggest waiting to mix everything together until soon before serving. ENJOY!

Notes

As desired, you can certainly make your own mix by shredding together 1/3 carrots to 1/3 red cabbage to 1/3 green cabbage!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Pre-Salt Your Cabbage 🥬
Toss the coleslaw mix with salt 5-10 minutes before adding the dressing to draw out excess moisture, resulting in a crispier texture that won't become soggy.
Balance Your Acid-to-Sweet Ratio 🍋
Taste as you go and adjust the lemon juice and maple syrup incrementally—start with less sweetener and add more if needed, as over-sweetening is harder to fix than under-sweetening.
Chill Before Serving ❄️
Refrigerate your finished coleslaw for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld and achieve the ideal cold, refreshing texture for summer meals.
Make Your Mayo Base Creamy 🥄
Whisk the vegan mayo with apple cider vinegar and maple syrup first before combining with cabbage to create an emulsified dressing that coats evenly and prevents clumping.
Store Strategically for Longevity 🕐
Keep the dressing separate from the raw cabbage and mix just before serving or eating within 2-3 hours to maintain optimal crunch and prevent the slaw from becoming watery over time.
