Either tell them you're a non smoker, or just plainly say "na, it's alright!"
They won't be offended whatever you decide to say! [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]

People will respect you if you just come out and say " No thanks, I don't smoke" or "No thanks, but I'm not into that" This way you are acknowledging the offer, but making it clear you don't want to do it. Don't feel pressured. 99.9% of time people will leave you alone after you say that. If they tease you or something, just stand your ground and say nicely "Haha, no really, I don't want it, but you go ahead."
