Add the cold tequila, lime juice and half of the lime zest and stir well to incorporate. Cover the remaining lime zest with plastic wrap for later use.

Gently fold in the whipped topping and transfer to your parfait glasses.

Chill until the layers are set (they will automatically separate) – about 1 1/2 hours.

Before serving, dollop with more whipped topping and sprinkle with the remaining lime zest.
