Brew 2 cups of strong coffee and allow it to cool to room temperature.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the brewed coffee and granulated erythritol or monk fruit sweetener.
Stir continuously until the sweetener is fully dissolved, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and unsweetened cocoa powder, if using. Let the mixture cool completely.
Once the coffee mixture is cool, pour it into a clean jar or bottle.
Add the vodka and dark rum to the jar, then seal tightly and shake to combine.
Let the liqueur sit at room temperature for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Shake the bottle occasionally.
Store the Low Carb Kahlua Liqueur in a cool, dark place and enjoy it in your favorite low-carb cocktails or desserts!
