As for green tea extract, it may not be the safest option as there is a chance of it placing some undue stress on your pancreas. Drink tea the way it was meant to be drunk and that is not in extract form.
Also, green tea water should never be boiled but heated to a temperature of 80 degrees Celsius, whilst white tea's ideal water temp is best at 85. Boiling does damage the polyphenols and some of the other goodies that offset the harm caffeine may have on some individuals.

Never knew this Fadi, quite interesting, i usualy just boil the water first and most of the time ill forget ive boiled it so by the time i get there its probably about 80 degree's C :P lol... mind if i ask what the ill effects are?
Power sports mate i dont know what to say lol, like dave said, maby its just not to your taste buds liking, so id stop drinking it, u have to be happy with what your putting into your mouth each day mate, try the green tea tablets mentioend earlier, or as Fadi mentioned the white tea. Cant say what white tea tastes like as ive never drunk it... but i can honestly say that ive tried some green tea brands and they taste horrid.... the one i drink every day now is Twinnings, green tea with lemon (its in a green box, u can find it at coles) and it tastes the best imo.
