How to Use Egg Whites in Margaritas. Most margarita lovers enjoy trying out new ingredients in their favorite drink. Mangoes, pineapples and even avocados are now common additions to the classic margarita. For a real change, try adding egg whites to your next batch of margaritas. The use of egg whites does not add flavor like the fruits that are commonly mixed into a standard margarita. Egg whites change the texture of the margarita, making it a creamy frothy beverage that is similar to an Orange Julius. The result is a beverage that is decadent enough to be a dessert.
