Is It Safe To Take Caffeine While On Lisinopril?

I am taking 12.5 mg Lisinopril with HTZ. I started biking and is taking amino booster that contains caffeine. I use the two scoop recommend for biking and it contains 100 mg of caffeine. Is this bad for me because I take Lisinopril to control the Blood Pressure?
