This solution worked for me, found in the Laravel Docs. You can override the unauthenticated function in the Handler like this:

protected function unauthenticated($request, AuthenticationException $exception)
{
    return $request->expectsJson()
                ? response()->json(['message' => $exception->getMessage()], 401)
                : redirect()->guest(route('login'));
}

then, handle and provide the response you want.

Don't forget to import this as well in the Handle.php file:

use Illuminate\Auth\AuthenticationException;

I hope it does work well for you!
