A good example of the use of metaphorical expressions in a company’s slogan is Tropicana’s “Your daily ray of sunshine,” used to promote its orange juice products. Here, “sunshine” is a metaphor used to create a pleasant feeling about the product and emphasize its necessity. People see sunshine as something positive and healthy since sunlight is an integral part of nature; it gives people’s skin a nice summer glow and makes the world around look more beautiful. The phrase can also be associated with two English expressions: “a ray of sunshine,” referring to a happy person who makes others feel better, and “walking on sunshine,” which means being happy and careless.
