adding local DNS resolution for a custom top level domain on macOS using macports

Recently I was testing some applications in a local kubernetes installation running in minikube , especially the access via an ingress. For this I defined the ingress endpoints using a custom otherwise not existing top level domain to produce names like application1.foobar or application2.foobar. (The list of officially registered TLDs can be found at https://www.iana.org/domains/root/db). Now in order to access these applications locally with an URL like http://application1.foobar/ I need to make the DNS resolution resolve this address to the IP address of my local minikube instance.
