Method

In a small pan, stir together the sugar, orange juice, Aperol and prosecco. Stir over a medium heat for a few minutes to dissolve the sugar. Remove from the heat and leave to cool. (To speed things up, put the pan in a bowl of iced water and stir regularly.)
Pour the mixture into the lolly moulds. Push in 1-2 orange wedges. Add the sticks, cover and freeze for at least 6 hours, ideally overnight, until solid.
Remove from the freezer 10 minutes before eating. You might need to dunk the moulds into a bowl of warm water to help the lollies release.
