Investing 1M in liquid assets

I’m looking for some thoughts on a capital-allocation question. A family is considering allocating $1–2 million into a long-term investment vehicle with the objective of generating a sustainable \~5% annual return while preserving capital.

What types of instruments or structures would be appropriate to achieve this goal over a long time horizon?
