Our Sweet and Sour Red Cabbage recipe is festive enough for St. Patrick's Day, yet simple enough for any night of the week! We've combined the tanginess of apple cider vinegar with the sweetness of sugar to make a side dish that everyone--including the Leprechauns--will want a taste of!
What You'll Need
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 small head red cabbage, shredded
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
What to Do
- In a large sauce pan over medium-high heat, combine all ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 40 to 45 minutes or until cabbage is tender.
Test Kitchen Tip
- This red cabbage recipe will go great with our super delicious Caramelized Corned Beef or this oh-so-yum Glazed Corned Beef!

Sweet and Sour Red Cabbage is often my contribution to holiday get-togethers. Here are some additional ingredients I have added in the past. Try one or all: raisins, walnuts, red wine, Five Spice Powder.

We used to go to a cafe that had a creamed cabbage. It was not cream of mushroom soup but I am going to try this one. I sure wish I had that recipe.
