Cut the watermelon, strawberries, cantaloupe, and peach into small chunks. Reserve a handful of each for garnish if desired.
Place the watermelon, strawberries, cantaloupe, and peach chunks into a blender.
Add the orange juice, lemon juice, honey, and mint leaves to the blender.
Blend the mixture until smooth and no chunks remain, about 1-2 minutes.
Taste the soup and adjust sweetness by adding more honey if needed.
Pour the blended soup through a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl to remove pulpy bits, if desired.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the soup in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until icy cold.
Once chilled, serve the soup into individual bowls.
Garnish each bowl with the reserved fruit chunks, fresh blueberries, and a sprinkle of lime zest.
Optionally, add a sprig of mint for extra freshness and serve immediately.
