Yes you can: You can as there is no sugar and that means there is no carb.

Atkin's diet: induction phase (which has very limited carbohydrates) does allow for it. REF https://www.atkins.com/how-it-works/atkins-20/phase-1/low-carb-foods. However, with newer information concerning increased insulin release due to some artificial sweeteners - I would not drink it if you are going exceptionally low carb.
