Add the strawberries, lime zest, lime juice, sweetened condensed milk, tequila, and orange juice to a blender or food processor. Process until completely smooth.
Pour this mixture into a large bowl and set aside.
Using either a stand mixer or electric hand mixer, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks appear.

Spoon onto the top of the frozen pie and sprinkle with lime zest.
- You may need to allow this pie to thaw for a bit before slicing in. However, it can't really sit out for an extended period (i.e., > 1 hour) without melting.
