Thinly slice the green cabbage and red cabbage, or use a mandoline for even and fine shreds. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Peel and julienne the carrots, or shred them using a box grater. Add the carrots to the bowl with the cabbage.
Thinly slice the red onion and add it to the bowl as well. Toss all the vegetables together to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, olive oil, celery seed, salt, and black pepper until well emulsified.
Pour the tangy vinaigrette over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly to coat all the vegetables evenly.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or a splash of apple cider vinegar to suit your preference.
Let the coleslaw sit for at least 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. For even better results, refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
Serve chilled as a side dish or topping for sandwiches, wraps, or tacos. Enjoy!
