(with-temp-buffer (add-to-list 'my-variable 'my-value))

unless the variable is automatically buffer-local. If it is, I think
it would be uncommon to modify the global value (it would be more
logical to just set it up with defvar), but you can always skip the
`add-to-list' and assign to my-variable with setq-default.
