  3. Blend the Ingredients: Combine corn, cucumber, bell pepper, tomatoes, shallot, garlic, jalapeno, olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, and salt in a blender. Blend until smooth.
  4. Adjust Consistency: If too thick, blend in more olive oil or water to desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  5. Chill the Gazpacho: Transfer to an airtight container and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  6. Serve and Garnish: Ladle the chilled gazpacho into bowls. Garnish with reserved corn, halved cherry tomatoes, basil oil, and flaky sea salt.
