Pour the cold water into a small bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over it. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently until the sugar has dissolved and the cream is heated through but not boiling.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until it is completely dissolved. Add the vanilla extract and stir well.
Divide the panna cotta mixture evenly among four ramekins or serving glasses. Allow them to cool slightly, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
Meanwhile, prepare the berry sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the mixed berries, lemon juice, and powdered sugar.
Cook the berry mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries have broken down and the sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
Remove the berry sauce from heat and let it cool completely before serving.
Once the panna cotta has set, run a small knife around the edge of each ramekin to help loosen the panna cotta, then gently unmold onto a serving plate or serve directly in glasses.
Spoon the berry sauce over the top of each panna cotta and serve chilled.
