In a large mixing bowl, combine finely shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, and minced onion. Toss to mix the vegetables evenly.
In a separate bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together mayonnaise, white vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, black pepper, celery seed, and the sugar-free granular sweetener until well blended.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture.
Using tongs or a large spoon, thoroughly mix the dressing with the vegetables until the salad is evenly coated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid, and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 2 hours to let the flavors meld. For best results, refrigerate overnight.
Before serving, stir the coleslaw once more to ensure it is well mixed and then serve chilled.
