I bought a room at an inn for 2 groschen, then slept. Sleeping in a bed you own always auto-saves so remember that. I then slept/waited until I nearly had 0 nourishment. Then upon waking I drank as much alcohol as I could until I was overstuffed.
After this it is simply a process of waiting for your nourishment to drop significantly so you can drink more, but it shouldn't take too long. You may pass out a couple of times but don't worry you can wake up and get straight back on the sauce.
The moment you acquire the 'alcoholic' de-buff the achievement should pop.
Hope this helps,
Let's keep cheevin' together!
NOTE: I would recommend doing this instantly after a save then reloading it. I cannot find the 'Dog O' hair' potion that's meant to cure this, and it takes a long time to cure naturally.

Method 1 - Low Drinking level (Instant Alcoholism)
If your drinking level is really low you will probably be able to get this instantly by drinking the Lethean Water Potion. Follow the instructions in the link above and brew two of these. You dont need to buy the recipe for any potions provided you follow the brewing instructions.
Make a save
Drink The Lethean potion which resets all of your perks so saving is important, however it can also cause instant alcoholism. If not reload the save and try again.
Method 2
Use the above link and brew several digestive potions and lots of Moonshine. Buy high alcohol content drinks, the level of alcohol is in the description.
safe passage perk really helps, sit on a bed or chair and drink 2 moonshines then sit patiently the alcohol will take effect gradually getting you drunker, watch the icon near the health bar it will increase from white to yellow and after a couple of minutes will fill up at which point you will pass out. Dont drink 10 or 15 potions straight off it just wastes them.
After a couple of minutes If the icon stops filling with yellow drink another moonshine/spirit which should be enough (depending on your drinking level)
if your nourishment level goes over drink a digestive potion which reduces it. Once the icon fills you go unconscious the safe passage perk will make sure you wake up in your nearest home, as soon as you wake up repeat the process.
I went unconscious three times, after the third time I drank another moonshine and then the achievement popped.
Its pointless drinking loads of drinks at once as you would in other games. The mechanics on this game are more life like so its just a case of waiting for the alcohol to soak in and get you drunk.
In total I used about 6 moonshines, 3 digestive potions. and it took me around ten.15 minutes to unlock
You can just keep drinking and get drunk over the course of the game or you can grind this out. You're probably going to need about 30 to 40 bottles for this. Drink as much as you can and then wait 24 hours. Keep repeating this process until you get it.
WARNING: I recommend waiting to get this trophy or at least make sure you get it and then reload a previous save, because if you get your drinking skill up too high, which going for this trophy will raise it quite a bit, it can stop you from obtaining the trophy You had one job! (which is from the "A Woman's Lot" DLC) so I'd avoid drinking as much as you can until you've obtained the trophy.
