For 8 servings
Combine ingredients in a saucepan. Place the mixed berries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and water into a medium saucepan. If using, add the vanilla extract and salt.
Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar has completely dissolved. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer for 8-10 minutes. Stir periodically, gently pressing some of the berries against the side of the pan with a spoon to release their juices and help thicken the sauce.
Check for consistency. The compote is ready when the berries have broken down and the sauce has thickened. It will continue to thicken as it cools. If it's too thin, simmer for a few more minutes. If too thick, add a splash of water.
Remove from heat and cool. Let the compote cool in the saucepan for at least 10-15 minutes before transferring to a jar for storage. It can be served warm or cold.
