In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, red cabbage, carrots, and sliced green onions. Toss to mix evenly.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, celery seed, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture in the large bowl.
Gently toss everything together until the cabbage and carrots are evenly coated in the dressing.
Cover and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and for the cabbage to slightly soften.
Before serving, give the coleslaw a quick toss and adjust seasoning, adding a pinch more salt or pepper if needed.
Serve chilled as a side dish and enjoy!
