3

Add 2 tablespoons of chopped onion to the cabbage and carrots.

In a bowl, combine 1 cup of mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1/2 cup of milk, 1/2 cup of buttermilk, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons of white vinegar.

5

Season the dressing with salt and pepper, then whisk until smooth and the sugar has dissolved.

6

Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss to combine.
