  • Add some sweetness to your dressing. This will help to balance out the acidity of the vinegar. Some good options include sugar, honey, or maple syrup.
  • Add some acidity to your dressing. This will help to brighten the flavor of the coleslaw. Some good options include vinegar, lemon juice, or lime juice.
  • Season your coleslaw to taste. This may include adding salt, pepper, garlic powder, or onion powder.
