Lemon juice is a fresh alternative and white vinegar is often cheaper.

Slice half of a medium green cabbage and remove the core.

Chop the cabbage into very fine pieces, about 4 cups total.

Grate 2 medium carrots using a box grater, yielding about 1 cup of grated carrots.

Grate half of a medium white onion.

In a large bowl, combine the chopped cabbage, grated carrots, and grated onion.

Add 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, 1/4 cup of sour cream, 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of ground black pepper, 1 teaspoon of celery seed, 2 tablespoons of mustard, and 3 tablespoons of sugar to the bowl.

Mix everything really well until combined.

Refrigerate the coleslaw for a few hours to allow the flavors to meld.
