Cut a large papaya in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Peel the skin and slice the flesh into small wedges. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the fresh raspberries, lime juice, honey, and water. Place the saucepan over medium heat.
Cook the raspberry mixture for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries soften and break down into a sauce-like consistency.
Remove the raspberry mixture from heat and strain it through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove seeds, pressing with the back of a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the seeds.
Let the raspberry lime sauce cool to room temperature.
Arrange the papaya slices on a serving plate and drizzle generously with the cooled raspberry lime sauce.
Optional: Garnish each serving with a fresh mint leaf for a touch of green and added freshness.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Papaya with Raspberry Lime Sauce!
