Florida Gazpacho With Shrimp image

A Cuban twist on a summer favorite. (Cooking time is refrigeration time). Frozen corn (thawed) may be used for fresh corn (skip step 4). Cooked baby shrimp (cocktail or bay shrimp) can also be used, but I like the flavor and texture of the chopped larger shrimp.

I love the combination of flavors in this gazpacho. The sweetness of the tomatoes and the acidity of the lime juice are perfectly balanced.
