In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots. Toss to mix evenly.
In a separate smaller bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the mayonnaise, sour cream, apple cider vinegar, honey, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well-combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrots mixture. Toss thoroughly to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated.
Add the crumbled blue cheese to the coleslaw and gently fold it in to distribute the cheese without breaking it up too much.
Taste the coleslaw and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Give the coleslaw a final toss before serving. Serve chilled as a side dish for barbecues, sandwiches, or grilled meats.
