Cryptographically secure random ASCII-string in PHP

I know about random_bytes() in PHP 7, and I want to use it for generating a cryptographically secure (e.g. hard to guess) random string for use as a one-time token or for longer term storage in a cookie.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to convert the output of random_bytes() to a string consisting only of human readable characters, so browsers don't get confused. I know about bin2hex(), but I'd prefer to use the full ASCII-range instead of hex numbers, for the sake of more bits per length.

Any ideas?
