Definately cut out the smoking. Best advice for your voice is the same I would give you for your health: stay in good shape, get lots of fresh air. Go for walks. I'm not kidding. I got that advice from an opera singer.
In the short term, if you need to sing and your throat is horse, a little Southern Comfort or Crown Royal usually does the trick.
And yes, I realize that these two pieces of advice contradict each other.
