Puree in a food processor or blender and add to the tomato juice mixture. Season to taste with salt, pepper and drops of lemon juice. Chill.
For Smoked Salmon Albondigas - Mix salmon, onion, garlic, zest and cilantro together and season lightly with salt and pepper. Form into even heaping teaspoon-size meatballs and set aside covered and refrigerated until ready to use.
To Serve - Scatter the diced cucumber, onion and avocado in the bottom of chilled bowls. Ladle the chilled soup over and divide the Smoked Salmon Albondigas among the bowls.
