In a large mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped cabbage and the shredded carrots.
Add the grated onion to the cabbage and carrot mixture and stir until well incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the dairy-free mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, and sugar until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Season the dressing with salt and black pepper, and whisk again to combine.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly to ensure each piece is coated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld together.
Stir the coleslaw again before serving to ensure the dressing is evenly distributed. Enjoy your dairy-free coleslaw as a side with meals or at your next barbecue!
