Peel the oranges and grapefruits, removing as much of the white pith as possible. Use a sharp knife to cut segments from the citrus fruits by slicing between the membranes.
Place the citrus segments in a large bowl, ensuring you also collect any juice that pools while cutting.
Zest the lime using a microplane or fine grater, then juice the lime. Add the zest and juice to the bowl of citrus segments.
Chop the mint leaves roughly and sprinkle them over the citrus mixture.
Drizzle the honey over the salad, and add a small pinch of salt to enhance the flavors.
Gently toss the salad with a spoon to combine all ingredients, being careful not to break apart the citrus segments.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. If refrigerating, stir again before serving.
