In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots.
Add the finely diced jalapeño pepper and chopped cilantro to the bowl. Toss to mix evenly.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, sriracha sauce, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly until all the vegetables are evenly coated.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed by adding more salt, pepper, or sriracha for extra heat.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled as a side dish or use as a topping for sandwiches, tacos, or burgers.
