Wash and shred the green cabbage using a sharp knife, mandoline slicer, or food processor to achieve fine, even pieces. Place the shredded cabbage in a large mixing bowl.
Peel and shred the carrots using a grater or food processor. Add them to the mixing bowl with the cabbage.
Thinly slice the red onion and add it to the bowl.
Measure out the raisins and sprinkle them over the vegetables in the bowl.
In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture. Using salad tongs or a large spoon, toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated in the dressing.
Taste the coleslaw and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or honey as needed.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the coleslaw to an airtight container. Let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Stir the coleslaw again before serving. Serve cold as a side dish and enjoy!
