Distilled water freezes first. This is because the presence of impurities in water lowers the freezing point of water and since tap water reasonably contains impurities, it will have a lower freezing point, that is it will freeze at a temperature less than 0oC. On the other hand, distilled water does not contain impurities and freezes at 0oC.
