In a pot, toast 1/2 cup red quinoa with a teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat until fragrant (2–3 minutes). Add enough coconut almond milk to cover the quinoa and bring it to a gentle boil. Stir constantly until the milk is absorbed. Add more milk (about an inch above the quinoa), reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once cooked, stir in 1–2 tsp cream of coconut (be sure to mix the cream in the can first).
