If you don't have a lot of services to access, you can hard code the tailscale IP address in /etc/hosts.

My personal /etc/hosts is at 10 services all hard coded since the internal IP address of a machine on tailscale is static. Way cheaper and easier to deal with than setting up a separate DNS resolver.

Of course that won't work if you have hundreds or thousands of services to work with.
