うん、全然大丈夫だよ。ここの水道水はすごく綺麗だからそのまま飲めるよ。

Yeah, it's totally fine. The tap water here is very clean, so you can drink it as is.
Gesture & etiquette
Smile and gesture toward the kitchen sink or a glass of water.
Avoid acting suspicious or overly formal as it creates distance between friends; do not suggest boiling it if the local infrastructure is already safe.
