Place the fresh raspberries in a fine mesh strainer over a mixing bowl.
Use a spoon to press the raspberries through the strainer, extracting as much juice and pulp as possible. Discard the seeds.
In the mixing bowl containing the raspberry juice, add balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and water.
Whisk the ingredients together until the dressing is smooth and well combined.
Add salt and black pepper to the mixture, adjusting to taste.
Whisk again to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Transfer the dressing to a sealed container or jar.
Refrigerate the dressing for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Shake the container well before using, as separation is natural.
