Why does whiskey sour have egg?

[Twilight]

While it's not required, adding egg white to a whiskey sour improves its overall mouthfeel and appearance by giving the beverage a silky texture and foamy foam. From personal experience, I've discovered that the egg white gives a creamy texture to the cocktail, which balances and satisfies the tangy sweetness of the whiskey and lemon juice.
