It freezes too slowly. The faster water freezes, the clearer it becomes; because most freezers are set at around 20 degrees F, the ice takes a long time to freeze and the air is trapped in it.
Now, if you were to freeze ice cubes with dry ice instead of in the freezer, you'd get clearer ice.

Air molecules freeze with a white look. If you could freeze water without any air in the water, then it would be clear.
Because it is not "flash" frozen.
The quicker it freezes the clearer it will be.
It's because the way the light is reflected by the ice.
