Cutting down does not work. It may work for a few days, a few weeks even but sooner or later you'll be back where you started. At first just don't drink at all and in the long run take care to not replace smoking with drinking, which is what I did the first time around. When you're ready, cold turkey works. I bought a pack of gums and still have half of them. After the first few days I think chewing nicotine gums would actually be counter-productive.

If you do smoke (perhaps because you've been drinking), don't give up giving up smoking but throw the cigarettes away if you still have some and continue not smoking. Don't be a whiny baby about it.
I stopped 70 days ago and smoked about 20 cigarettes in that time (always when I'd been drinking).
Sure, that's not good but I did NOT smoke 1380 cigarettes in that time.
