I neither drink nor smoke. Or I neither smoke nor drink. This should be the proper sentence.

The correct way to write this sentence will be: I neither smoke nor drink. Two verbs and nouns are always placed between neither, nor. The first one comes after neither and the other after nor. ex. Neither Ram nor Shyam came to the party. He neither studies himself nor he lets me study.
