Steve has it right on, but easy on the mustard, it can overpower a slaw. I would start with the mayo, add a bit of vinegar and salt, and just dribble a bit of mustard. Then taste and add more of whatever you think it needs. Also I add a bit of sugar for a sweeter slaw. If it the dressing is too thin, just add more mayo till it is your preferred consistency.
The most unusual slaw I had, here in Tucson, also had cinnamon in it. I hated it when I first tasted it, but after I got home and had some as "leftovers" it really began to grow on me. Now I want to go back and get more.
