The recipe below is for a large group and will easily serve 20-25 people.

As opposed to mayonnaise-based coleslaw, this one is a sweet, honey-based coleslaw with fruit flavors.  The apple cider vinegar, apples, raisins and honey add sweetness to the cabbage and onions.

This is a great compliment to corned beef either as a plated lunch or sandwich.
