I think mandarins are more like small sharp oranges/large tangerines, (just a bit bigger.) Taste delicious but possibly not bitter or sharp enough for your G&T bluwise. I've started using thin strips of cucumber curled around the inside of the highball glass with G&T lush and refreshing.

I would be really shocked if they really are limes. Can you cut one in half and post a photo

Try the guy in Ovacik Garden Centre, he seems to be able to get anything you want.

The garden centre in Ovacik were selling them about 8 weeks ago. A bit pricey , but we bought one for sunny Uzumlu.
