Steps
Place the coconut milk, Greek yogurt, ice, and simple syrup into a blender.
Blend the mixture until it reaches a smooth, consistent smoothie-like texture.
Check the consistency; if the drink is too icy, add a little more coconut milk and re-blend briefly.
Add the cooked black rice to the blender.
Pulse the blender at a low speed just enough to incorporate the rice without over-blending, to preserve the structure and chewiness of the grains.
Pour the mixture into a glass and enjoy immediately.
Notes
To preserve the structure of the rice, it is important to not over-blend after adding it. Purple rice can be found at many Asian grocery stores; look for rice with more dark grains instead of tricolor grains. While the recipe doesn't explicitly state the rice must be cooked, this style of drink always uses cooked, chilled rice to achieve the signature chewy texture.
