- 0.25 cup (finely minced) White Onion
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Granulated Sugar
- 0.25 cup Milk

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the finely shredded cabbage and grated carrots.
Add the minced white onion to the cabbage and carrot mixture, and toss to combine.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, granulated sugar, milk, buttermilk, lemon juice, white vinegar, salt, and ground black pepper until smooth and creamy.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage, carrot, and onion mixture.
Using a spatula or large spoon, gently mix until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. This allows the flavors to combine and the coleslaw to achieve its signature tangy-sweet taste.
Give the coleslaw a quick stir before serving. Serve chilled as a side dish with your favorite meal.
