Probably: This is normal for many types of tap water. To make sure it's not contaminated. Fill a glass from the tap and let it sit for about 1 minute. The white should clear. If it stays milky after 2--3 minutes, then i would have your water checked.

Water: Water contamination. If you are concerned about the safety of your drinking water you may contact you water regulatory authority and may try water filter and water analysis.
