Shred the green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots using a sharp knife, mandoline, or food processor. Combine them in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
In a medium bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, apple cider vinegar, honey, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.
Add the blue cheese crumbles to the dressing, reserving a small amount for garnish, and gently fold them in.
Pour the dressing over the shredded cabbage and carrot mixture. Toss everything together thoroughly, making sure the vegetables are well coated.
Taste and adjust seasonings, if needed. Add a bit more salt, pepper, or honey depending on your preference.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, give the slaw a quick toss. Sprinkle the reserved blue cheese crumbles and optional chives on top for garnish.
Serve chilled as a side dish or use it as a topping for burgers, pulled pork, or other sandwiches.
