In a medium-large mixing bowl combine all of the mixed nuts, walnuts, almonds and cashews, toss to combine.
In a small mixing bowl whisk together egg white, vanilla and water until it becomes foamy.
Add egg white mixture to mixed nuts and toss to combine, making sure to evenly coat all of the nuts.
Top the nuts with the sugar mixture. Stirring to evenly coat.
Add nuts to prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Place in oven and bake for 10 minutes.
Stir nuts mixture once 10 minutes is up and then bake for another 10 minutes.
