Sweet Coleslaw
Adding a little orange juice to make the dressing a little sweeter. This recipe easily makes enough for 10 people or more. If it's on the thin side, add another 1/2 cup of mayonnaise. If it's too thick, thin with more orange juice.

I love this recipe. I made this along with the Texas Pulled Pork from All Recipes & it was a hit. I used a 2 lb bag of shredded cole slaw & felt it was a little dry so I added 1/2 more of the ingredients. I also used someone's suggestion & used pineapple juice instead of orange juice. It was wonderful!
Read MoreThe serving guide is way off! To make enough slaw for 32 adults, it said to by 6 heads of cabbage. Way, way too much. Needed maybe 1.5 to 2 heads! I now have 4 heads leftover. Guess l'll have to be creative with the remaining cabbage.

Great family-picnic cole slaw. Orange juice gives an interesting kick and sweetness. I have made it several times, and I think now that the overall amount of the sauce should be increased by about 50%, and the OJ increased by double. This may leave you with extra sauce (maybe for chicken salad tomorrow?), but you are able to add sauce to acquire the "wetness" that you want in cole slaw. Good stuff !!!
I love this recipe. I did not have white balsamic so used the regular/dark balsamic. I felt it needed a little more dressing. So I added 1/2 more of the dressing recipe. FYI - I used two bags of shredded cole slaw instead of the cabbage and carrots. It was great!
I used regular balsamic vinegar. But what the heck it was just the family and beige is a color that goes with everything. Awesome recipe!!! Thanks.
Excellent! Used all low fat options in the mayo and sour cream. I also did not have white balsamic so I used my regular balsamic vinegar. I also used 3 small (coffee packets) of Stevia non sugar sweetner instead of the white sugar. Sure the balsamic tinted this slaw an odd color....lol....but it was delicious!I also love the addition of the orange juice. Next time I will add some orange zest as well to bring out that orange flavor. I also added some green onions to this and used a store bought slaw mix. Excellent with shredded BBQ pork! Thanks!
Yummy! I'm not usually a coleslaw fan, but this one is a keeper! I agree with other reviewers . . . need a little more of the tasty sauce. Thanks for sharing!
Creamy flavorful and oh so good. I didn't have white balsamic vinegar so I used the balsamic I had on hand so my co slaw was a little creamy in color it didn't change how good it was.
Excellent coleslaw. I used 1 head of cabbage & the consistency was just right. Yum-eee!
I loved this recipe! I don't care for the taste of orange juice so i used pineapple juice instead, It was DELICIOUS!!! Thanks for sharing:)
Fantastic! Made the day before the BBQ it was very good. I also used two bags of Cole slaw mix. 16 oz. each.
Really liked this coleslaw. It even passed the dad test which when it comes to coleslaw, that is a tough one
I used only one head of cabbage instead of two to solve the sauce issue so many speak of here. Adjusted mayo down to one cup and upped the sour cream to a half cup. Doubled the pepper to half a teaspoon and added a half teaspoon of sea salt. Took the orange juice to 2 tablespoons, it's a really great part of this recipe. Yeah I changed quite a bit but this coleslaw turned out really good with these fixes.
A favorite for my daughter and I. In the summers I will substitute the cabbage for garden fresh red kohlrabi cut into match-stick size pieces.
Agreed with all other people in the review - doubled-up the sauce or cut half on the cabbage & carrot which was how I made mine. Big success!! The orange juice definitely added merits into it.
Super easy. If you buy packaged coleslaw this can be done in under 10 minutes. We really didn't taste the orange juice but it did have a nice sweet taste.
excellent slaw! I used equal amounts sour cream and mayo. I had to use regular balsamic vinegar, all I had. wife and ma-n-law loves this stuff.

I have the recipe and found it to be perfect for about four servings. Tastes very very good. Definitely a keeper for me!
Very good. I tweaked it for personal preference (1/2 the sugar, double the orange juice, and half light sour cream/half light mayo). I was just making it for two and used 1/3 the recipe for half of a 14 oz bag of coleslaw mix. That made about four servings.
Great slaw. It will be perfect on or with pulled pork especially Carolina pulled pork with the vinegar base. Love the orange juice. Changes the flavor profile just enough to notice it. Only change I made was too add celery seed. I used 3 bags of coleslaw (cabbage and carrots) and doubled the recipe for the sauce and it was the perfect amount.
This makes a large bowl of coleslaw, so good for a crowd. I thought it was very good, but there was a pool of sauce in the bottom of the bowl. A bit soupy, might decrease the amount of buttermilk. I like to shred the cabbage in my food processor, as sometimes that bagged cabbage has a funny taste, and also less expensive.
This recipe is delicious!! OJ? Who would have thunk it! I used one bag of shredded cabbage and carrots ('slaw' mix) for the amount of sauce (but could have easily used two bags, if I had as many). I also substituted the vinegar for apple cider vinegar.
Delicious! Used regular balsamic vinegar because I didn't have white so it looks light brown... but I would use this on/in other stuff too, like tuna salad or just as a sandwich spread, even a veggie dip!
This was my first time making coleslaw. I like a sweet coleslaw and this one had the right name and great reviews. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! Thanks for the recipe!
I have not made it, but since i must rate it to post i temporarily give 4 stars based on other reviews. I have a question and will be glad if anyone could give me an answer. Am very new to the use of vinegar in cooking. Will a White wine Vinegar do in the place of the balsamic vinegar?
good!
The only thing I did differently the first time was use "cheater" cabbage. My family and I really love this recipe. I have also made it using only sour cream, and it is every bit as good. It is just the thing to ser e with "Perfect Pulled Pork" on "Burger or Hot Dog Rolls" also on this site.
I mad a much smaller batch so I adjusted everything accordingly, except I added a bit more balsamic and a bit more orange juice. I didn't have actual juice so I used clementines. My husband said it was the best coleslaw he has ever had :) I will definitely make this again.
I'm not a big fan of coleslaw but this recipe was delicious. My family loved it too. I'll definitely make it again.
I used this recipes with 1 1lb bag of progressed cole slow cabbage. Worked well with that amount of cabbage. Not sure if this would have been enough for 2-1/2 heads of cabbage. The flavor was delicious though. I didnt detect the orange juice like I thought I would. Almost reminds me of KFC.
Great recipe but I also added more Mayo and sour cream, a little sweet onion and a sprinkling of Old Bay for that "Seaside" flair. In my opinion.....ANY coleslaw should be made the day before and allowed to marinate over night in the fridge.
Added zest and 2 tablespoons of fresh orange juice. I added a jalapeno with seeds removed and celery seed. The total mixture has a fresh and vibrant flavor. I have made many cole slaw recipes and this is the best so far. T Gerber
01-16-16 ~ Having friends for dinner, I was looking for a sweet cole slaw. This fit the bill, nicely. I was out of sour cream, so I used Greek yogurt in it's place. The dressing had a slight sweetness to it without being overly sweet. It paired nicely with 'Roast Pork with Maple and Mustard Glaze' and 'Pumpkin Cheese Bread' both from AR.
What a great tasting recipe!! Made it for our fire station shift dinner to go with pulled pork. Orange adds good sweetness and some zest to it. I bought way too big a cabbage so didn't use the 2 1/2 it called for but oh well. I used dark balsamic by accident but it didn't hurt it at all. A must make!
Absolutely fantastic . Made it within any changes. I used the multicolor
