Rinse the strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries under cold water and drain them well.
Hull the strawberries and cut them into quarters.
In a medium saucepan, combine the strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, lemon juice, honey, and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer the berries for about 10-15 minutes, or until the fruits have softened and the liquid has thickened to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the compote cool slightly.
Transfer the compote to a serving dish or an airtight container. Serve warm or chilled, as desired.
Store any leftover compote in the refrigerator for up to one week.
