In a large bowl, add tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, jalapeño, shallot, garlic, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, basil, salt, pepper and cumin.
Mix well and allow to sit for about 30 minutes at room temperature. This will allow the flavors to meld, and tomatoes will begin to release their juices.
Likely in two batches, add mixture to a high speed blender with olive oil. Purée on medium until smooth.
Pour into bowl or pitcher and set in fridge for an hour or so to chill.
Serve in bowls with chives, cherry tomatoes, jalapeños, remaining cucumber and bell pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and additional salt and pepper if desired.
Enjoy!
